3 New ‘Star Wars’ Films Announced, Daisy Ridley to Return as Rey

Three new Star Wars films have been announced at Star Wars Celebration Europe.

James Mangold will direct a pre-Old Republic film about the origins of the Force.

Rey (Daisy Ridley) in STAR WARS: THE RISE OF SKYWALKER.

Dave Filoni will direct a film taking place between “The Mandalorian” and “The Force Awakens.”

And Sharmeen Obaid-Chinoy will direct a sequel, which will take place 15 years after “The Rise of Skywalker.” This was announced as a new film but Obaid-Chinoy was already slated to work on a Star Wars film, so it’s unclear if these are two different projects.

Daisy Ridley is set to reprise her role as Rey from the sequel trilogy as she leads a “new Jedi order.”
